DOOR ADJUSTMENT
1. Disconnect the oven from the power supply and re-
move the outer case.
2. Remove the single (1) screw holding the door swing stop
lever to the door.
3. Holding the door, remove the four (4) screws securing
the door hinge to the oven cavity. The door assembly
is now-free from the oven cavity.
4. On re-installing new door assembly, secure the door
assembly with the four (4) mounting screws to the
oven cavity.
Make sure the door is parallel with the bottom line
of the oven face plate and the latch heads pass through
the latch holes correctly.
Note:
After any service to the door, an approved
microwave survey meter should be used to
assure compliance with proper microwave
radiation standard.
(Refer to Microwave Measurement Pro-
cedure).
Note:
In case of the Latch Heads and Door Lever
Removal,
“TORX” Type screwdriver should
be used.

When removing and/or loosening hinge such as in the case
of a door replacement, the following adjustment criteria
are taken. Door is adjusted to meet the following three
conditions before tightening the hinge screws.
1. Adjust door latch heads at a position where they
smoothly
catch
the latch hooks through the latch
holes.
Refer to upper and lower latch switches
adjustment.
2. Deviation of the door alignment from the horizontal
line of cavity face to be less than 1 .Omm.
3. Door should be adjusted with its face depressed toward
cavity face.
After hinge screws are tightened under foregoing condi-
tions, recheck 1. and 2.
Note:
The door on a microwave oven is designed to
act as an electronic seal preventing the leakage
of microwave energy from the oven cavity
during the cook cycle. This function does not
require that the door be air-tight, moisture
(condensation)-tight
or light-tight. Therefore,
the occasional appearance of moisture, light
or the sensing of gentle warm air movement
around the oven
doop
is not abnormal and do
not of themselves, indicate a leakage of micro-
wave energy from the oven cavity. If such
were the case, your oven could not be equipp-
ed with a vent, the very purpose of which is to
exhaust the vapor-laden air from the oven
cavity.
